Default Grand Bazaar

There will be a Grand Bazaar at the Coffee Cafe (5th ave and 34th st) on Sunday 23rd November.
Anyone and everyone is welcome to come along and put up a table (75peso) and sell..sell..sell....
This is a charity event and the table proceeds will be going to the shelter this time, if it is a sucess then we will be doing this regularly with the table proceeds going to the other charities here in Playa...Angel Notion..Bomberos..Cruz Roja.
Please help us to make this a huge success.

Oh importantly Charities will not be charged the table cost

Andy, I'm confused. Will the Peanut Pet Shelter have its own table at the Bazaar? Will proceeds from other tables be going to the shelter? Since there's a table fee, I imagine the tables are doing this for profit.

Hi Libby, yes the shelter will have its own table selling our (and any donated stuff) and no only the table charge is for charity and money people make from thier own tables is thiers to keep, so a win -win for everyone, it will be much the same as the yearly Anadale 5th avenue Bazaar but hopefully more regular

Yes, what time. I would love to get a table!
Just need to make sure the hubby isn't working an event and can cover the kids.

Can we donate a portion of our porceeds to the cause?

Andy, Should we just bring stuff the day of the bazar or would you prefer it ahead of time?

Hi the bazaar was open from 9 am until around 4 pm, it was great and a success.
The first one had 8 other sellers one of which was another charity stall and the shelter made over $4000 pesos

We have just confirmed with Robert at Coffee Cafe that this will now bw a regular event and we plan to have the bazaar on every second sunday so the next sale is not next sunday but the following one .
And we will start at the later time of 12pm *setting up from 11.30.
Hope to see more of you at future sales

That's great!! We were unable to make it down yesterday because of our early Thanksgiving festivities but we will be back in town for the next one!! Yippee! What a great idea. I miss Sunday garage sales and flea markets in the states. I hope this really takes off!!
